Chuck, are you speaking from experience here or just shootin' the
breeze? David, do you know how much 'set-up' is required to use
maven with Hudson?
All this toying around with environments etc sounds tiring. :-)
I've had the pleasure of using Maven some now and you're not
really giving the full story here
Well I wasn't attempting to give the full story - only what's
related to building under hudson (which I believe this topic was
about). Sure there's a couple of other steps involved in setting up
maven overall but I think it misleading (though I know Chuck's
mostly joking
No, not joking for what I thought the topic was, "difficulty in
debugging build problems in Ant vs Maven".
... but others believe him word-for-word) to keep suggesting that by
using maven you're problems would be exponentially more difficult.
Then again - Chuck was probably 'goating' a response :-)
Ouch!
In my experience with maven, setting up a new machine is relatively
painless because all of the configuration is self contained. That
is the point I was attempting to make.
I agree that is is very good for dependancy management when
(a) the dependancy still exists in the repository
(b) the repository still exists
(c) there are no build problems
Sometimes this is the case, particularly when you control all the
repositories. It certainly has NOT been the case for all the
Mavenized projects that I have tried to build, especially over a few
years. People "clean up" repositories. Shit breaks.
No worries- look this turned into a much more serious (tone-wise)
discussion than I intended. My initial reply was meant to be taken a
bit more light-hearted... the woes of email :-)
with regards,
